School improvement with CLIL Hackney Conference powerpoint June 2024

I was invited by Bernadette Clinton Hackney Languages Adviser to talk at her conference in June 2024 about school improvement and CLIL. This powerpoint was the one I used at the conference. It begins with information about international school improvement and shows how Finland , Canada and Estonia have high places in the PISA tables . These countries have at least 12% of their schools involved in CLIL and immersion strategies. What is interesting is to watch the you tube link and watch how Canada and Finland remain highly ranked throughout the beginning of the 21st Century as their programmes are already embedded. However watch how Estonia rises rapidly as its programme which began in 2000 embeds. The other really amazing thing is to look at the 2022 table of PISA results and note that Finland, Canada and Estonia have the highest SCience results outside of the Far East.
This link between Science and CLIL progress and attainment is something that I too have found in my research based on the three schools where I introduced it.
The powerpoint outlines why CLIL aids school improvement and how it does so. It also gives background to the reasons why it has not taken off in the UK and why there is an imperative to improve schools and languages in the UK
